| In Memory of….
Scott Bleifer & Stanislov Ionov I guess that anytime, anywhere what follows could be my name or yours! I’m very proud to say that I was a part of the Memorial Ride in honor of fallen cyclists Scott Bleifer and Stanislov Ionov. I did not know them personally, but I know that they loved to cycle and that their lives ended doing one of the things that they were very passionate about. I was in a sea of orange vests on Saturday morning October 1st for the Memorial ride, that not only did it honor but, it was also a loud cry for AWARENESS… Cyclists as well as drivers and why not pedestrians! We in the cycling world for the most part are all three: cyclist, drivers and pedestrians…Safety Awareness and Politeness may take us a little further in the cycling world along with being an advocate for the sport. Well I wont’ drag this on and on…I will say that Reggie, Norma, Thomas and Joe were there to represent the “Dockriders”, just a little surprised I didn’t see more “Yellow Banana Eaters” out there!!! Which brings me to an interesting quote, that I just read “Character is made by what you stand for; reputation, by what you fall for.” – Robert Quillen (Thank you Mr. Andre for posting the quote).
